Nice location but, despite an on site warden, loud partying until 2am with unattended kids chopping wood with axes in the middle of the night whilst their drunk parents stumbled around the fire pit really did take the edge off the experience...

The keeper was a tremendous help. The stay would have just been OK but she made it easy and really helped me out.
